    Default A suggestion

    As I've reinstalled Rome TW, I've been trying some mods other than SPQR.

    I must say, despite some interesting things in other mods, SPQR's gameplay is definitely the best.

    However, I found a detail in a mod which caught my attention. Marcus Camillus Roman Leadership mod. I think this would be a great addition to SPQR, as it would provide a greater depth (which I think you will agree, is a good thing for SPQR players, just see the "campaign stories" they write).

    Would it be possible to combine this mod with SPQR ?

    It works by adding traits/ancillaries.

    Your Generals/family members will get traits such has "Military Service IV years" then V years... These are used to represent the roman society in a number of ways. After a number of years he will get to be a Tribune, Legate or General.

    Also, to be a Consul, for example, the character will need to had been in the army for a number of years.

    You will also get Ancillaries such as I Consular Army, or Legion I or Legion XX.

    That's why I am asking. If it was only a matter of using these files instead, I would have done it.

    Cromelex,

    I have played BareBoneWars from Repman and he has integrated Marcus Camillus Roman Leadership mod into his mod. I also quite enjoy playing that mod and it is close to SPQR standards (0 turn recruitment/balance)

    I guess u could ask Repman for some tips on how he did it... I'd love to have it implemented in SPQR since I enjoy role-playing

    I've been trying to do it myself, but I can't, I always end up in a crash when starting a campaign.

    Yes I did toy with the idea of adding those features but there was some issues. Some of the traits didnt work in SPQR for some reason. Also I wanted to add revolts for loyalty that didnt work using the settings provided in that mod. I even had marcus trying to help with it and we couldnt figure why it wasnt working. Therefore I didnt add it. But the Good news is I plan on working on SPQR again to add some NEW features. One being maybe Alae Named Legions. or auxillia named Legions. ;-)

    Its hard to stay away from SPQR when so much more can be added.

    Ditto!!!

    @LT that is great to hear....I recently dropped M2TW from my hard drive and reinstalled RTW/SPQR after only a couple months.

    I guess I'm a bigger fan of the time period then I thought and have been completely spoiled by SPQR

    That is great!! Maybe you could even try to add in this stuff again. I mean, it would be a great addition. Maybe even adding Auxiliary Legions ancillaries.

    Anyway, I'm looking forward to your new additions
